Command Line Features (`pman` command)

Command-Line Features

(note: this wiki page is incomplete and needs work)

The pman command accepts a variety of additional arguments and/or flags to modify how it starts up, and how it behaves from there. There are a number of planned and necessary behaviors surrounding command-line arguments that aren't implemented just yet, but all that are documented here are planned for implementation before the next official release.
